Mr. 3,loNest came forward to acknowledge the kindness of the electors in putting him in ,nomination, and thanked the Mayor for the impartiality of his efforts to secure a hearing fur all pu ttee. He also eipressed his pleasure upon finding that there were now four candidates seeking ,to represent them in Parliament. Their borough, therefore, must be admitted to be now a free it'll open one, and be rejoiced to feel that he had contributed to place it upon so independent a footing. It was in support of these prin ciples that therhedprospered under Atte auspices of Mr. Lefevre, in the year 1802, and be hoped they would Jong maintain the station which they had so honourably acquired. Mr. BLACKWELL SIMON OS put in nomination Mr. Edward Wakefield, and was seconded by Mr. Quire, who reviewed the parliamentary conduct of the two old members, which he charac terized as useless and inefficient, and at some lenath contended that a great reduction of taxes bad taken place of late. Mr. Wax Erato then► stepped forward, but the mutual inter ruptions of the contending patties rend6red it quite impoesible to hear his observations distinctly. He , disclaimed in the most pointed terms having taken an undue advantage over any other candidate, and explained that sO far erell having meanly under mitred any,, 11e had not canvassed t nt il r. week after Mr. Vyshe Palmer bad encireased the etcetera. When the use of gentlerennly OliViey was talked of by some of his opponents, bow was it that they permitted their retainers to deal out all ruanner of low scur rility, falsehood, calonmy, and forged letters, against private life With respect to hie piddle priuciples, he would scorn supporting them by such nets ; and were a friend of his to resort to them in favour of his interest, he should leave the borough the very next moment. \Viten the electron were told that he was as unknown Man, it might be perinitted to him to say, that he had, during more than :10 :tears, had thelionour of being consulted on int portant public questions by seine of the greatest men of his day— by Mr. Pitt, the late l.ord 4lelville, cud many others; The noise vkiii at length so great that Mr. Wakefield because quite inaudible. The Iler. bt. Wtst'prOposed Mr. George Spence as a fit and propel. peilon'to represent their horungli in Parliament, cid paid ri high tribute to the"publie and private merits of the learned gen tleman. Mr. Dime seconded this proposition. Mr. Seestrz Alluded ti, the ceinparative disadvantage under which hiclabintred, by this being his first appearance as a candi date, and the 11!,equent prejudice miller which he laboured. He s" ' ll , U lOl, upon public grounds alone; and if a Tory were the OirriiiCter defined by 111 r. Marsh, lie;• for one, had no pretensions o that name. As to the hopes of promotion . from lute politics, which bad been glanced at, he appealed to his past conduct, as the best answer to such an imputation. His reason for opposing the Catholic question wag, that he was averse to granting political power to a Oct which had always abused it, and maintained a dominion over kee opinion mid the right of private judgment, which was never attempted by imy other religious sect. With respect to the wretched condition of *Wand, he thought the diffusion of echieatimi And if the lights of the Gospel would do more good for the people of that country than any of those other meattires open which so much stress had been laid. He disclaimed having attempted to create a cry of '" No Popery ;" tin the enntrary, he bad done all in his power to oppose ,its introtltletion: He differed limn the old Candidates, becouse he l'fitanglit their opposition to Ministers 'was systeMatic, and carried to a Culpable i:ktreini , ." Upon all great questions, he should be forind the advocate of a proper economy.. : ---(Applause.)

CARLISLE, SATURDAY, 3 P. A terrible disturbance has just taken place in the Town hall. Mr. Wm. Brougham, breither to H. Brougham, Esq. M.P. rose, and in rti Most energetic Ipvich, declared that Sir P. Musgrave was forced on the freemen at the point of the hayouct ; that at that moment cavalry were stationed under arms within 300 yards of the city. When Nfr.

The interval which had occurred since be last bad the pleasure of addressing the elec tors had been so very short, that it was unnecessary for him to go over those topics, on which he then ventured to address them. Before be sat down, he would advert to a popular topic, which he found to be a very difficult one ; and he meant Parl►amentary Reform.---(Hear, hear.)-4le differed from those who supposed that it could be accomplished with great facility. Mr. Kekewich proceeded to reprobate the system of corruption, as degrading to electors, and concluded by returning thanks for the proud dis tinction conferred upon him. Mr. BucK, being unused to public speaking, found himself in , adequate to the tusk of expressing his feelings. lie hoped to be judged by actions, and not by professions ; and when be again met his constituents, he trusted lie should receive the seal of their ap probation for the conduct he had putsued.—(Loud cheers.)

The new candidate is Mr. Pannier, of Kingstim, . late Sheriff, who avows his hostility, to , Mr. 11. Sunnier, and not to lir. Denison. Mr. rallmer's placards are posted every where, and his supporters are now actively soliciting votes, and with good success. Mr. Sumner has accordingly established committees, and as the poll commences to-morrinv, it is necessary for Min to use all possible despatch. . . GREAT HARLOW. The spirit of the electors of this borough, which has lain 'dor mant for above 20 years, lies at length been roused. An offer was made of producing a candidate on Thursday se'nnight ; that cans dilate, James Morrison, Esq. entered the town at four o'clock on Monday afternoon lust, amid the most rapturous applause ever witnessed in that or perhaps any other town. Mr. Morrison is the son-in-law and successor of Mr. Todd, of Fore•street ; his character is most unexceptionable; he is the architect of his own immense fortune, and his disposition to benefit the. town and the public is on a par with his extensive means. A letter from Mar low states, that 'Owen Williams, Esq. and James Morrison, Esq. havo been returned to Parliament for the•borough of Marlow; Mr•. Morrison having polled 20 votes over 'l'. P. Williams, Esq. MAIDSTONE. Mr. Robarts and Mr. Wells both offer again, and have met with great success. Hot-ever, 'on Monday, a third candidate made his appearance in that town—Wyndham Lewis, Esq. late M.P. for Cardiff, In the course of the evening, Mr. Lewis ad dressed the electors from the windows of the Bell-inn, and stated, that he proposed paying his personal repecta to the electors, It is, however, very doubtful whether he will go to the poll. A numerous deputation waited on Sir It Wigram, Baronet, on the 9th, offering their support in favour of his own sons. Sir R.

Captain Ilarrie is the next -- a gentleman of considerable repu tation in his profession (the Navy), of Tory principles, and de pending for success on the aid of the respectable manufacturers, most of whom hold his political faith. The last is Mr. Cobhett, too well known to require description. As the proceedings and result of the last contested election here in 1820, may throw some light on the event of the present, I 'tub a few facts of that occasion. The total number of voters in 1820 IV/W.6,20S ; for Horrocks, 1,902 ; Hornby, 1,649 ; Williams (the lawytr) 1,525 ; Hunt (the blacking mm), 1,127: The election Listed thirteen days, and Hunt's defeat is ascribed only to his departure for his trial at York, before the end of the polling. At present the number of voters is considered to exceed that of the year 1820 by 500 or inure, so that it is clear we shall now have a long, severe, nod doubtful contest. The election commenced this morning. The , business of the ►lay was opened by the Mayor, Thomas Cirinishaw, Esq. 'and the two Bailiffs. Cobbett harangued the mob upwards of an hour. . MY. STA NLE ' %poke with hits Usual good Sense, liberality, And moderation. Alluding to the 'Catholics, he said, that the argu ments put forth on the Catholic question, in the iuldress of the British Catholic Association to the electors of Britain, tvere the beet anti strongest . he, had ever seen in favour of emanci pation. Mr. Virtion'S address was brief and temperate. Captain Mantes attempt to be heard was met by the violent opposition and virulent abuse of the rubble ; they would not hear a syllable ; and though Cobbett seeme d most to exert himself to obtain a bearing for his opponent, the scot and-lot men would have their boisterous way, persisted in their tumultuous clamours, and, at last resorted to the favourite popular method of conquering the persevering spirit of the gal lant Captain, by pelting him with sand, stones, and other tangible instrumente of stub-eloquence and universal suffragism. After. the oratory was exhausted, the Mayor took a show of hands ; for Mr. Stanley' considernble display ; f or W oo d a f ew ; still fewer for Captain Barrie ; and for the Man of the Register, an absolute, forest of fingers, whose squalid colour and brawny thickness strongly indicated the "operative" quality of the owners. They then proceeded to the polling. Mr. Stanley polled his most respectable supporters, among whom were several gentlemen of the first consideration in the neighbourhood. At the close of the poll (four o'clock, Friday) the numbers were, for— Mr. Stanley - - AS Mr. Cobbett - - 22 Captain Barrie - Mr. Wood - - SAT IJKDA.I , 11 o'CLoex.—Sir Thomas Beevor has been pro posed this morning by Cobbett's friends, Captain J. M. Colquitt, R.N., by Captain Barrie's, and John Law, Eaq., and Mark Phil lips, Esq., in coalition with Mr. Stanley and Mr. Wood. These additional nominations and coalitions are in reality but nominal, having been effected by the four first candidates, for the pum of preventing a splitting of their votes with their immediate opponents. The several new candidates briefly harangued the multitude in their turtle. The polling then commenced, when some of Mr. Cobbett's men were rejected, on the ground of having received parish relief. Such a ragged rabble were never brought together as the suppor ters of the political gridiron--the veriest scum of the. , The roach is on the point of starting. The hustings, within the market square, echo to the discord of tongues, while the streets without resound with the harmony of music bands. (From the Preston Chronicle of Saturday.) Titian immix. • State of the pull at the close of this day:— Mr. 14 taaitY - - 90 Sir T. Beevor - - 14 Capt.-Barrie - 49 Captain Colquitt - Mr. Wood - - 45 J. Laws, Esq. Mr. ("Abet - 39 IM. Phillips, - Esq. 0 In Mr. Stanley's tallies the votes were principally plurnpers, hut a few gave splits for Captain. Barrie. Mr. Woral'a aplitswere mostly in faveurml Mr. i..;tatiley., as were also those in Captain liarrie's (From' the Morniuy Herald. ) The position of the eandidates demands one wor4, Four can didates were lifted against each other—they are the four first. --When Mr. Colihett found that he line not winning, he said "I will manoeuvre a will.lowe tuantber_ candidate proposed ; those who vote for surly parldidate will vote for me, and in Ads IvaY I win have in effect' twti tallsea brought up for the tine " 1. each of my opponente.”—. Oh, tvell !" exclaimed the other can didates, " that is: trick that four ran play at—we will do the came. And the coustopiento wits, thm:ther Sir tp. ftervor hail been nominated, three candida.tes,, rc b being , 4it the interest of one of the existing candidates, were proposed also. Thus then it is—two tallies are brought up virtually. for each of the bona fide candidates, at a time, instead of one, and the "trick" having been adopted equally by all, no one bat en advantage over the other. The reason why . Mr. Cobbett appears so low in , the poll is that that so many out of his tallies have been disallowed, and principally for having received parish-relief. A set of these per sons get into a tally-room—are living plenty of drilik for two or three da)s, perhaps at the expellee of the candidate, and ,when put to the test on the: hustings, they turn out to be neither good men nor true. BackWardness in the poll, when the tally system is pursued, is next to being irreparable. The effect of the preSent prospect in the minas. of Mr.. ,Cobbett's friends is visible. The thing, in short, is up nith hint. QUEENBOROUG The election for this 1161.014 h commenced 011 Saturday.

A few dropping shots have. occurred In the shape of hand-bills, which have failed in bringing on angry or personal .

It is hard to form any definite opinion ; but the Ge neral's prospects are fair, and any thing hut hopeless. The town is a moving scene. —gay beyond description—decent demeanour— many ribands, and sweet pretty candidates, who are sure of com manding the poll, although in these greasy moments they look like any thing than polar inhabitants. STAFFORD, JUNE 10. The election of representatiVes for this place closed to-day. The candidates were Mr. Benson, Mr. Ironmonger, introduced as the friend of Mr. Sheridan ; and Mr. Campbell, the barrister. Every evening, Mr. Ironmonger harangued the populace in the Market _ _ _ place, Mr. Benson from the windows of the Swan Inn, and Mr. Campbell from those of the Star. The last gentleman was powerfully assisted in speaking by Mr. Ryan, of the Oxford cir cuit, and Captain Scarlett. On Friday morning, at 10 o'clock, the candidates were proposed, and the polling began alphabeti cally as the voters stood upon the burgesses roll. Mr. Iron monger took the lead.

PrtheNwEEM, —ln your journal of the 15th September last, you give an account of the disfranchisement of our burgh, and of the subsequent meeting of the Town Council, - in virtue of a war rant from, the Privy Council, dated July 19, 1825 At this meet ing of Council parties were equally poised, and the electron being made by the casting vote of the lireses (two persons claiming this right) a double election was consequently made. The party pre viously in possession of the management of the burgh retained the books, &c. An action was brought against this election before the Court of Session by the other party, but owing to some informality in giving the summonses,- the cause was delayed beyond the statu tory time in which processes of this kind can be brought, and I understand that last week the Court of Session sustained this ob jection, and dismissed the, action. The following persons are therefore now the undisputed Magistrates :—James Tod, sen. chief magistrate; D. Davidson, sen., W. Thomson, J. Hots burgh, baillies ; Peter Yule, treasurer. This decision has come very opportunely in aid of Mr. Balfour's canvass in this quar ter, as it seems understood here that the present magistrates are in the interest of that gentlemen.— Correvondent of the Fife Herald. IRELAND. (From the Dublin Patriot of Satur►lay, JUne 10.) . The election for DUblin 'commenced this 'clay.—The period of an election is naturally one of great popular excitement—what ever morbid feelings of discontent and resentment exist in the bosom of society then burst forth with uncontrolable vehemence. Upon the great, the absorbing question of Irish politics our opin ion is decided; and the very animosity and maniac fury we behold arc but additional reasons to - prove to us that there • is no peace for this country, until lawa cease to make those distinctions by which such passions are generated. While we deplore, we shall not par take of the passions which deform society. As journalists, we shall give faithful pictures of the scenes we behold ; but we shall not be infected with the exaggerations of party. Neither can we, who ire among the eligible class in society, he supposed to be infected with the passions of those who are the excluded. The scenes ofexcitement with which we are surrounded, are to us a subject of compassion and sorrow—compassion for the busy 'actors in inch maniac scenes —sorrow, that there should still be found men so infatuated as to wish to perpetuate the system by which they are caused. Curs ELECTION.-At ten o'clock this morning, the three can . didAcs, Messrs. Shaw, Moore, and Grattan, were on the hustings, Mr. Haig hnving previously resigned. Mr. Shaw was proposed by the Lord Mayor, and seconded by Alderman Tyndall, Lord Mayor elect. A considerable 'delay occurred, in consequence of Mr. Moore and Mr. Grattan wishing to give precedence to each other. Mr. Grattan anxious to get a reply (as the candidates speak in the order they are proposed) •to Mr. Moore, and Mr. Moore naturally fearing the castigation he would get from Mr. Grattan. At length Mr. Moore was proposed by Mr. Dawson, in a speech of Considerable length, which we could not distinctly hear, situated as. we were, but which we could only judge of by the maddening exasperation it produced upon the populace. Mr. Ellis seconded Mr. Dawson. Mr. Grattan was then proposed by Mr. John D. Latouche ;' seconded by Mr. Arthur Guinness, two Christico Protestants : w e say Christian, because they recommend principles 'calculated to Promote that charity and peace which is the attribute of Christia nity—and Protestant, because the toleration they inculcate, was the principle to which Protestantism owed its existence. The candidates then.severally addressed the Meeting. Mr. Shaw. and Air. Moore said but little. Mr. Grattan then rose, and really we cannot envy the feelings of Mr. Dawson, Mr. Moore, or Mr. Ellis, whose arguments he Wowed and combated in a strain of masterly and triumphant animadversion. Mr. Lawless next ad dressed the Meeting, which then adjourned until Monday. —The general opinion is, , that . Mr. Grattan and Mr. Moore will be returned; and, indeed, circumstanced as the City just now is, it is, perhaps, what should he most desired by the lovers of peace. The City is distracted by two contending par ties.. By each returning one, it would give, more than any thing else, that feeling of satisfaction to both, that would tend speedily to bury in oblivion the exasperations of a party contest. CouisTv MoNscnarl.—A warm contest is expected in this county. The candidates are Mr. Shirly, Mr. Westenra, and Mr. Leslie. Mr. Shindy is a new candidate upon ' liberal prin ciples, and his election is considered pretty secure. Mr. Wes tem.& and Mr. Leslie have been both hitherto exclusionists, but one must be returned : and we find that between the two, the Catholics of the county, who are a rich and independent body, make a distinction in favour of Mr. Westenra. Mr. Leslie, my they, is an old and incorrigible sinner against us, one of the ante-deluvian school of politics, too old to • change, who will obstinately adhere to mischief, and call it virtue Grey-headed iniquity of that description, should be marked ,with peculiar reprobation. Mr. Westenra, On the contrary, say the Catholics, has some redeeming qualities. He has hitherto, it is true, voted against us—he has a brother the master of an Orange Lodge; nay, he pledged himself against us on a former election. But he has on this occasion declined to renew that pledge—he has, therefore, not sworn against wisdom. Ile it is trop, refused to pledge himself to vote for us. This is manly ; to changt at this juncture would hear the Character of an electioneering artifice. His father, too, Lord Rossmore, was our warm friend; and Air. Westenra is of an age, and has that rank of intellect which leads us to hope we shall yet find in him Paclimbaris. We shall support bins. This B is no tte . feeling ll :f in :ll% or Catholics of Moiniglian. COUNTY CAVAN. --Mr. O'Connell goes down to Citvan to-day to address the electors of Cavan on Sunday.

LONDON, T 11E SD A Y E VENING, J UNE 13, 1626• We hare receivettthe French Papers of Saturday , with the Etoile of Sunday morning. The following are the only articles worth extracting :—We also that the Lott er y, i n spite of all the argusontS against this mode o f ra i s i ng m oney, - was sanctioned by the French Chamb er on the 9th instant. observe - (From the - Mille, dated Sunday, •June 11.) 31.—The French merchantman Le Prospero, Captain Eyraux, is said to have been taken by pirates off Cape Malapan. Piracy has become so general, that there is now no security either in the open sea or in the ports. All Greek • eels, of whatever description, pretend to the right of search, ono under the specious pretext of looking for the property of their ene mies, they carry off that of all nations indiscriminately, carrying their pretension so far as to insist on exercising this right of search with respect to vessels protected by tneu-of.war of their nation. His Majesty's schooners Torche, Daphne, Amaranth', and Douphii:Oise, as well as the Lionne corvette, which have been at different times in the port of Milo, with several French Vessels under their convoy, have been obliged to employ the strongest arguments to refuse to various Greek cruisers this right of search, which they affirmed had been given them by Commo dore Hamiitou. . The asse m bly of the Greek nation has been again put off to a !Snore distant period. It is the intrigues of the present Govern ment that hinder this general assembly, which the Chiefs loudly call fOr, in order, as they say, to learn how the sums of money lent by England have been employed. SyRA, MARCH 27.-LThe trade of this island, formerly so flou rishing, is wholly destroyed.. Piracy exercises its sway, and it is impossible to calculate when it will cease. A French merchant man, from Marseilles, was anchored at Syra. , A Greek armed vessel, which was in the port, insisted on searching this ship, 1 1 1 " though the Captain declared he came direct from Marseilles ; and in spite of the presence of his Majesty's frigate the Gaintkee, the corsair, accompanied by the Secretary of the Eparch, went on board the frigate, to request. the Captain's permission to search the C'olonibe. The Captain dismisaed them with the assurance that he would sink the brig of the CorNair if he persisted in his design. The General A.sembly of the Greek nation has not yet con. eluded its'aittings, being unable to agree in divers points of the Constitution. PARIS, JUNE 10.—The body of recruits in the Kingdom of LoMhardy and Venice, for the year 1826, is fixed at 15,000 men. • Gallicia has received orders, froM Vienna, to raise in six weeks' 14 4 000 recruits; 4,000 to complete the regiments of Bohemia,' and 10,000 those of the other parts of the empire. • (From the Pilots of Saturday.) MADRID, MAY 29.—A1l those persons who Were implicated in the affair of Bessieres have just been expelled from Madrid ; most of them are ecclesiastics. All of them were exiled from Madrid, under the administration of M. Zee Bermudez ; bu t immediately after his dismissal, the Apostolic party obtained 1)0 - - mission for them to return to the capital. The notes addressed by the English and French Ambassadors • , to our Minister for Foreign Affairs succeed each other very ra pidly. It is affirmed that some of them are in very energetic, term*, and much embarrass the Duke de l'lnfantado. The Eng lish Minister insists on the evacuation of Spain by the French troops; and the French Minister requires not only the repaymen t of the thirty millions, and more, dne to his Government, but also that ours shall take energetic measures to re.cstablish tranquillity and good order before the troops of his Most Christian Illkie st Y quit Spain. The English urge o ur Goverment to recognise t he new American States, or to take measures to subdue them ; nei ther do they neglect to demand the payment of the immense stuns due to them as an indemnity for the seizures made in Spain and America since 1814, which i n d emn i ty was recogn i se d by the Constitutional Government, an d su b sequently b y the Mini ster Don Victor San.
